About DesktopVisionMCP. Show, don't tell.
You describe your screen to your assistant. You screenshot it, crop it, paste it, and still leave out the thing that mattered. DesktopVisionMCP lets it look instead. A macOS menu bar app and a plain MCP server, so it works with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini, or whatever you move to next. It captures only when asked. It never records, never clicks, never types, and its state is always in the menu bar. Captures go to the assistant that asked, and nowhere else.
About The new Firecrawl /search
Search is how AI agents ground themselves in the web, but reading full pages for every query burns tokens fast. We trained a model that returns the excerpts from each /search result that best answer your query, giving your AI agents highly relevant context from every page. It outperforms processing full pages while using 10x fewer tokens. On SimpleQA, AI agents using Firecrawl /search now score 94.7%, higher than any other provider. It's live today on every /search call.
